Joe Bolden is more than a quote-maker for the Michigan football team. He is also a fine linebacker who has been recognized by the The Pacific Club IMPACT Foundation as one of the finest young men in college football, leading to his nomination for the 2015 Lott IMPACT Trophy.

According to the club, Lott Trophy nominees "are considered for their academic standing at their university, their community contributions, their leadership skills and their overall character."

No Michigan player has won the award since it was established in 2004.
